1986 Jeanneau Sun Fizz 40 "SDF" walkthrough

SDF (Sans Destination Fixe) was built in 1986 and specified by her first owners as a bluewater cruiser. She was sailed extensively from Canada, along the East coast of America, through the Caribbean, across the Pacific, throughout Australia, Indonesia and Malaysia before being purchased by the current owner in Langkawi in 2013 who then sailed her to Singapore. The Jeanneau Sun Fizz 40 was designed to be a racer-cruiser, and SDF was fitted by the factory with a very rare (possibly unique for the Sun Fizz) sugarscoop with steps and integrated gas locker, increasing her usability as a long-range cruiser, evident from her history between 1986 and 2013. Since 2013, the current owner has proven she is still a very competent racing yacht, having won local Twilight and Sunday Series races, as well as cruising the East coast of Malaysia, exploring the various islands around Singapore and participating in several other regattas. Taking advantage of more free time during Covid lockdown, SDF has been treated to a substantial refit with several upgrades. Many systems have been renovated or replaced at considerable expense, and SDF is now perfectly setup for local sailing, club racing and bluewater cruising, with 300W of solar, a Spectra 30 litres per hour watermaker and long range fuel tank (360L compared with the original 150L). SDF is both registered and flagged in Singapore, meaning the new owners are easily able to cruise internationally while maintaining the Singapore flag if desired. Fitted with in-mast furling main and roller furling genoa, all lines leading back to the cockpit making SDF easy to sail short-handed or even solo. She is so easy to sail, on our seatrial we were able to hoist the sails and tack single-handed without even using the winches.
